I think you could out Day in that category as well. His shot routine is not exactly speedy.

I absolutely would. I want to like both guys but their slowness is making it hard for me. My favorite player is Snedeker, not in a small part due to how fast he plays.

I like his demeanor a lot more after that interview.  Took his bad bounce and is moving on.  Would love to see this kid compete over the weekend.

Seems like Bubba and Rickie should take a page out of his book.

Agreed. I decently like Spieth but the amount that he and his caddie belabor every decision has got to stop. 

Yeah, but sometimes we forget he's only 22. DeChambeau is the same age and he's a little whiny out there, too. Rory was at 22 as well. Tiger was spitting, cursing and throwing clubs at 22. I think he'll mature with age. He's already matured a lot just from 21 to 22.

I just never understood the super slow play. To me that just means more time to overthink the shot. Make up your mind, take a practice swing and rip it. Most players don't have that issue, why do some of them?

The coverage is atrocious. Who chooses what to screen and what not to?   Surely a non-golfer.???

I had that guy over to my place a few months ago.  He picked up my bowling ball and asked me what it is.  Clearly he isn't a golfer.

(I don't actually know;  I'm half watching coverage today while doing some work.  Will sit and watch intently tomorrow and of course Sunday)

I hope they put Spieth on the clock after his first tee shot tomorrow. Whiny little brat. 

COME ON RORS!!! I hope he steps on Jordan's neck tomorrow and doesn't let up till Sunday night.

How was Bryson whiny today, apart from your average look to the caddy and toss your hand up that every player does (including all of us)??

Are you a Nike rep or something.

I like Rory too, but come on. :-P One of only three under par today?

Mcilroy highlights package. McIlroy wears grey better than PM.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Why do all the greens look beat up? I have never noticed imperfection at AN like this year.

Spieth mentioned that in his post round interview...if I remember correctly he said they were "crusty"....not sure exactly what that means, but maybe they weren't rolling as true

Dried out more than usual,less receptive,hence the high scoring.

Yeah I heard that too. Just weird. When they zoom in on lag putts, you can see the greens are all jacked up. I have never noticed anything out of place on that course before.

I love when you get descriptive like this! LOL.

I didn't see this coming from Phil.  I really would have liked to have seen him play this weekend.

    • Day 36: 15 balls, same as last few days. Then a little indoor putting.
    • hey guys, sorry about the kind of short notice, but i'm not going to be able to make it to the outing this year....  
    • Had to correct the distance - should have read 5,400 not 5,500  yds. 
    • Had to report this one - played Minnesott again today with my son.  We played behind the Friday Men's group and had a decently paced round.  My round started off par-par-bogie.  I was feeling good to be +1 through three.  Played the next two par - par and then disaster hits - well I thought it may be the unravelling of +1 through five.  Tee shot on six is a hard pull hook into the ditch separating four and six.  I know the ball is lost and re-tee - hitting three off the tee on this par five.  Long story short - what should have been at worst a bogie became a triple 8.  Now I'm +4 through six holes.  Get a solid par on seven (which I celebrated as a solid recovery hole).  Eight is a birdie and I'm back to three over.  Nine, a par 3 over water, finishes par for a 39 front.   We roll to the back to where I birdie ten (the toughest hole on the back) to be -1 after the first hole on the back, +2 for the round.  Par eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen and fifteen - that was an in the zone moment.  Have to note that fourteen - the second par 3 on the back - I hit the tee shot just short right of the flag.  Easy pitch with the 56 should put me close for a tap in par.  It does not happen - as I duff the pitch to about 3yds closer.  I reset and this time I nip it nicely only to see it land and slowly roll to the cup and drop in for a chip-in par save ( a first).   We get to sixteen and I am thinking this could be a really good round.  It's also a par 5 and I hit a solid tee shot.  I'm about 220 from the center of the green and figure I can layup with the 3w as there is a nice landing area in front of the green and it would play nicely into the typical distance I hit this club.  I'm sitting about 50 yds from the flag to the right hand side.  I overcook the 56 and see the ball bounce off the back of the turtle green.  I hit an easy 56 again to see the ball roll to the other side of the green.  Long story it became a 3putt double.  Now I am +4 through sixteen.  The last two holes are solid pars - one an up and down, the other a GIR two putt. Finished the back 1 over at 37.  Total score is a 76!  A new personal best.  Best "all around" play through the bag to date. 
    • Day 562, May 17, 2024 Spent a LOT of time on GEARS stuff today, so while waiting for imports, exports, and all manner of things, I did some rehearsals in the mirror and camera in my basement.
